Iron Man
Your second layer of protection, affected by armor and magic resist, and charged by your abilities dealing damage. Early game it gives you a harrasment advantage as you can charge it up with mobs and hit your opponement while he hits your shield. Do make sure the mobs aren't hitting you while your charging it up on them.

Same tactic works on the towers too, a fully charged shield soakes up 1 hit from the tower early game.

Mace of Spades
"Q" ability which is multi-targeted unless your target is alone, scales with attack damage.

Creeping Death
"W" ability which has a great synergi with as it slows your opponoments in your vicinity while your Creeping Death is active (your other abilities too), and makes chasing easier. Gives you or an ally increased armor and magic resist for the duration of the effect. A strategi early on with this spell against ranged summoners is to place it on a minion in the front so you can charge your shield while not taking damage.

Siphon of Destruction
"E" ability. Your main method of dealing damage. A note to this ability is that the more units or heroes you hit, the more shield you get. While in a group fight or alone against multiple opponoments, you should allways position yourself so that you hit as many as possible, or if your opponoment is alone have him in a position so you can hit enemy minions aswell.

Children of the Grave
"R" ability. Drains life, deals damage based on your target's health and if your target dies it gives you a ghostly companion. This ability has a great synergi with . In team fights or fighting alone against multiple opponoments you should use it to heal yourself (target the tank as he has most % health), or finnish off an opponoment as your ghost gives you 20% of your slain targets ability power and attack damage. You can also direct your pet by holding down your alt key and using the right mouse button.

This build has a focus on magic penetration as your opponoments, especially DPS carries, rely on damage, critical chance, attack speed etc. to survive and therefore has around 63 (approxomately numbers) in magic resist, so instead of increasing your own damage, you make your opponoments weaker by lowering this number. Also it has as much ability power you can get without gimping your ability to tank. If you want more ability power end game you can swap for . Also Speed is of the essence hence the movement quintessences.

THIS BUILD IS A RIPOFF FROM Frish's GUIDE Invinci-Kaiser REVAMPED + New TT Build 3.0; The ex-Premium Guide With a Semicolon

Which is a great guide for playing Mordekaiser, and all credit to him and for his insight into the magic penetration way of playing the character.

This guide (One man army Mordekaiser) is meant for self references and to be used by my friends (perhaps).
